[interview with protester against the current dictator regime in Tahir]
Reports are coming out that the gas canisters that were being fired at protesters have “Made in the USA” on them.
Always reblog.
And here’s the answer.
US, you lie, in faith, for you perpetuate plain hate.

[ Dear fellow Americans, Your government is providing the largest support to our 30-year president. They are supporting the state security with weapons and tear gas canisters. They are giving our country $1.6B yearly funds that mainly go to this corrupt government in various forms of bribes. Your “democratic” country is supporting our government because they are afraid of the Islamists. But I am telling you, fear not. Your view of the Islamists is untrue and has been corrupted, but that’s a story for another day. At least give us your support, in that it’s our right to choose our leaders. Support us, and tell your senators and congressmen to stop supporting our government. Support us, and tell the world that our freedom is more important than our bread. Support us, and help us get rid of a 30 years old government. Just imagine how you’d feel if your grandchildren witnessed the same ruler! ]
